Effect of mouse submandibular gland extracts on survival of H-2 incompatible skin allografts

PMCID: PMC1455744  PMID: 4919033

Abstract

Crude saline extracts of male mouse submandibular glands prolonged graft survival time in CBA and Strong A strains of mice, both when used alone and when used in conjunction with antithymocytic serum. It is suggested that this effect is produced by a lymphoid tissue inhibitory substance found in male mouse submandibular glands.
